Ibou Sawaneh quits Belgium side Tubize to pen Luxembourg deal

Scorpions’
veteran striker, Ibou Sawaneh has left the Belgian second-tier side AFC Tubize
to pen a deal with Luxembourg top-tier side Union Titus Pétange.

Gambia
Sports reported that the striker was a free agent after quitting AFC Tubize,
where he endured difficult times.

Many
had viewed Sawaneh’s move as a bid to revive his career which has stalled since
last April. The 32-year-old had a trial with Lierse Kempenzonen in November but
the Belgian First Amateur Division club passed on the decision to sign him.

Sawaneh,
who was once a sort after talent in 2012, attracting interest from St Etienne,
Bayer Leverkusen and other top European clubs, will now use the short-term move
to Luxembourg to revive his career.

Titus
Pétange currently lies 7th on the 14-team Luxembourg National Division with 18
points after 13 outings.
